Nietzsche for Breakfast

Friedrich Nietzsche is perhaps the greatest thinker in the history of humanity and also the most misunderstood. Ferguson, who read Nietzsche for twenty years during his daily walks with his dogs in the forests and along the lakes in Switzerland, has condensed the philosopher's essential thought into 100 pages.



On being asked about this book, he admitted, "I have picked up many books on Nietzsche and rarely liked what I read. I thought Nietzsche himself would usually have been very disappointed. In Nietzsche for Breakfast I have tried to be as fair as possible to the core of his vision of existence, human and otherwise..."

Early reviewers agree that Ferguson - novelist, painter, English teacher, newspaper columnist, and basketball coach who, like Nietzsche, fled the academic world in his twenties - has succeeded where so many others have failed.
